I had a hard disc failure and had to reload Design suite 6 from disc.  The program is now telling me I have 7 days to register the product or it will quit working.  The serial number is already registered.  It won't connect to the adobe site from the popup screen that comes up telling me I only have 7 days to register.  What do I do?

Go to the Help menu in Photoshop and choose Activate. It should open a wizard allowing you to do this.
If that fails, Contact Customer Care after clicking on one of the activation links. The more information you give them, the easier it will be for them to help you.

  • I tried to register my macbook air 2013 and it said the serial number was already registered

    I tried to register my macbook air 2013 and it said the serial number was already registered.  I purchased it in my city at an authorized reseller beucase there isn't any Apple Store and they told me that they haven't registered it.
    How can I solved this trouble? I want to registrer it.
    Thank you very much.

    It could be that it was automatically registered when Apple sold it to the reseller (which is what they usually do). It is best to contact Apple and provide your proof of purchase so the machine can be registered in your name.

  • I recently had a catastrophic hard drive failure and had to replace it.  At the time, I had a VERY extensive music library and it is now lost. This entire library was also on iTunes. Is it possible to recover that library, or do I have to download again?

    If your hard drive was not backed up then you can download items purchased from the iTunes Store.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list, or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Did you subscribe to iTunes Match service?  If you did, your other music would be available too.
    Note, this restores the music files themselves, not playlists, playcount, ratings, or other things associated with the actual library file structure.
    You really should consider getting a backup drive. Hard drives failures are a certainty and it saves a lot of grief.

  • Do I have to report my lost ipod touch 4G. Its serial number is already registered with apple. Any help to find it will be apprecitated

    Do I have to report my lost ipod touch 4G?. Its serial number is already registered with apple. Any help to find it will be apprecitated.

    You can't track it with the serial number.  If you had an iPod Touch running iOS 5 later AND set up Find my IPod on it, then there is a chance you might be able to locate it by going to www.icloud.com, logging in with your Apple ID and clicking Find my IPod.  Of course, the iPod still needs to be on and connected to a Wi-Fi network in order for it to be located.
    If nothing else, report it to the police and change any and all passwords to any accounts you set up or used on the iPod.
    Apple otherwise cannot help you.

  • I have updated my iPhone 4 for the first time in about a year. I had synced it so my photos should be safe but it's now telling me I have to restore. I'm worried I will lose my messages and whatsapp videos as I have a pc so these aren't saved elsewhere

    Restore from backup and everything will be exactly as it was when the backup was created.
    Restore as new and the device will be as if it just came out of the box.

  • I recently had a hard drive crash and had to reinstall PS. Now it doesn't work right.

    I recently had a hard drive crash. I replaced the C: drive with a solid state and now have 3 internal HDs. C: for the OS (Windows 7), D: for data and P: for program installation. Because I replaced the C: drive, I had to re-install all my programs. Now, PhotoShop will not let me place text, inserting the text tool causes the program to stop responding. In InDesign, if I try to place a MS Word document, it acts as if I never did that action and I can't get it placed.
    I can copy and paste, but doing so makes the formatting get left behind. I suspect it may not have installed correctly. I've used Adobe products since 1991 and never had this happen before. I even used Aldus PageMaker before the Suites were available. Can anyone help? Is it a reinstallation issue?
    I use PhotoTools from OnOne and if I uninstall it to reinstall CS4, I'm afraid it will no longer honor my product key.
    I will not give up until this work like it used to. I'm too old to upgrade.

    The faulty HD was replaced with a solid state one and that works fine. The fan that caused the errors on the old HD was removed. The system is probably not an issue since I had to reinstall my Windows 7 and it was the only thing installed on the C: drive. I have another drive that I run programs from and one other that I use only for data. Plus a backup drive. The BIOS was reset. The only remaining problems I have are trying to find the software for the web cam driver and I think I will just download it again and my problem with PhotoShop and InDesign. Those two are the sticky ones,I depend on those programs. They work, even my PhotoTools plugin works. The only problems seem to be using the type tool in PS and placing MS Word documents (.docs and .docxs) I think the program must not have installed correctly but I'm afraid if I reinstall it, it might be worse and then I might have to reinstall PhotoTools. That would require calling the company again because when I reinstalled it the last time, it said that it couldn't accept the product #, it had been used before. Yeah, by me. I called them and they gave me a new number, but I don't know if they will be happy if I do that again. So, my best bet is to see if I can fix those two functions. Thank you for your response. let me know if you have anything to add. I appreciate your time.

  • Music Files Deleted After Hard Disk Failure and First Sync After Hard Disk

    Hi,
    I recently had a hard disk failure and lost all of the data on my hard drive. I replaced the hard drive and reinstalled all of the software including iTunes. I am running Windows XP Home. The first time I plugged my iPod Nano into my computer after the hard drive replacement it synced to iTunes and since iTunes had no music files it deleted all of the music files on my Nano. How do I get them back and why on earth would iTunes do such a stupid thing??? My Nano contained many songs that I bought from iTunes and I want to get them back. I have found some third party software that will undelete the deleted files but it costs $69. I don't feel that I should have to pay to correct a defective feature in iTunes. Does Apple have an undelete utility? Can I redownload the songs that I purchased from iTunes?

    *The first time I plugged my iPod Nano into my computer after the hard drive replacement it synced to iTunes*
    When you connected did you get a message that your iPod was linked to another library, and then press Erase and Sync? When an iPod is set to update automatically and you connect to a computer with an empty iTunes and accept the message above it will erase the originals completely (as you have discovered). Also as you've seen, none of the recovery programs are particularly cheap so you have to decide if in your particular circumstances it's worth it to get your songs back. It may be if you have a lot of purchased tracks which you will have to pay to download again. If they came primarily from your CDs then it's most likely not as you can re-rip them.
    *Can I redownload the songs that I purchased from iTunes?*
    If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
    "Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
    You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service

    My hard drive fried and had to be replaced. I'm trying to install CS4 from my original discs but keep getting this error message - "One or more of the required components of Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard failed to install correctly". A customer service rep gave me a link to download off the Adobe site, but when I try to open the file to run it, I get this error message - "A problem occurred extracting the archive".
    Can anyone help?

    Yep.  Nothing happens at all. Windows tries to execute the uninstaller, but I don't get any other screen and all activity stops for the MSI.  I monitored it in Process Monitor and the MSI executable appears, but is quickly ended, like it couldn't find anything or something.
    It's as if windows has a blank entry in Programs and Features, because it used to show the size of the Adobe application in the "Size" column.  Now it's just blank.  Link to screenshot below:
    http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/5006/screenshotcaf.jpg
    Note the install date.  That's when I was able to successfully reinstall it.  Now I can't even do that.  I should also mention I tried Revo Uninstaller.  It deleted one small registry key, but nothing changed.
    By the way, is the CS cleaner supposed to ask for a disc in the drive when you run it?  It refused to run unless I had one in it, so I used my install dvd.

  • I had a hard drive failure on my iMac.  I can restore my music, tv shows, and apps from the iTunes store.  How do I restore my movies?

    We came back from vacation to find our iMac not working.  Turns out I had a hard drive failure due to an invalid node structure?  They could not recover anything.  I can restore our music, apps, and tv shows from iTunes.  Anyone know how to restore the movies we purchased from iTunes?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reaosn you have failed to backup, then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod.  File>Transfer Purchases

  • I bought creative suites over 3 years, but now cannot update and registered in my account, the error massage are:This serial number has already been registered. Products can only be registered once.

    i bought creative suites over 3 years, but now cannot update and registered in my account, the error massage are:This serial number has already been registered. Products can only be registered once.

    The message is correct.  You can only register a product once... there is no need to register again after you do it the first time.  You can re-install and activate with the serial number, but there is no need to re-register.

  • Had a hard drive failure.  Office wants a key to start up after backup.  Was preloaded when I bought the laptop.  How do I get activation key?

    I had a hard drive failure on my MacBook Pro last week and had it replaced by Apple.  When I restored my computer with a Time Machine backup, Office 2011 wants an activation key to start up again.  Problem is, I had Office pre-installed when I bought my MacBook by Apple.  Where do I get the activation key to get it working again?
